Planting the Seeds of Your Desires

Today is the beginning of my new hypothesis. Today, I am looking at scripture with a different understanding. Today, I am looking at Mark 4:26-29 in regard to manifesting your dreams.

And He said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

Scripture says, “The kingdom of God is within,” therefore, Mark 4 is telling us how our desire’s can manifest because they are within us. When you visualize in detail what you desire, while in the meditative state, it is like scattering seed upon the ground. This is because when you are visualizing the outcome of your desire, you are scattering the energy of that idea upon the field of manifestation that has been called the “thinking Stuff” by writers such as Wallace Wattles (The Science of Getting Rich) or the ether by Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich). Your thoughts are like seeds being blown by the wind. Some will fall on fertile ground and others will fall in the cracks or on infertile soil. Those that fall on fertile ground and are nurtured in the proper way will sprout and begin to grow. As verse 27 tells us, we don’t know how the desire or request will manifest. We only know, without a doubt that it will.

I enjoy gardening. Each spring I loosen the soil so that I may plant my vegetables and flowers. I dig a hole, put in fertilizer, water and the seed. Over a period of days, the seed begins to sprout and then it begins to grow into a vine for cucumbers or a tomato plant or whatever was planted. The amazing thing here is that I don’t know how the plants grow. Yes I learned about plants in school and about photosynthesis but this is not the issue. The issue is I had a desire to have vegetables in my garden. I planted the seeds with the knowledge that given the right circumstances my plants would grow to maturity.

It is also true of your desires. You plant the idea upon the ether by visualizing in detail the outcome of what you want. In my mind, the idea that I visualize is like broadcasting over the television. I have pictures and sound and color of what I want it to look and feel like when my desire manifests. An example would be asking for a new vehicle. You know what type of vehicle you want. You know the make, the model, the color, the engine type and anything else that you desire for that vehicle. The sowing of your seed begins when you go into the meditative state to visualize how it feels to be driving the vehicle of your choice. You must feel as though it is already yours just as I did when I planted my vegetables. I knew they would grow to maturity.

You have no idea how you are manifesting that new car or truck you only know that you have sown the seeds and asked the God of your heart to supply it to you. The scripture goes on to say that the earth yields crops by itself. What does that mean to you? Does that mean you don’t have to do anything? Sometimes that is true. There are other times when you have to water and fertilize after you have planted the seed. This is what I refer to as Inspired Actions. You may be inspired to go to a certain location or call a certain person. You will be inspired to do, be or say what is necessary for your desire to mature and manifest. Just like a seed!

A grandmother and I will call her Mary, was without a new car. To manifest she visualized the make, the model, and the color of the car that she wanted. She was taking public transportation and each day she would imagine she was driving in her new car and feeling the sensations as though it was already hers. Several days later, her daughter-in-law brought her grandchildren over for her to babysit. She said she had a couple of papers that she needed Mary to sign for her. One of the papers was the title to a car that she and her husband owned. They were giving it to Mary. The car was the same make, model and color that she wanted. The only difference was that it was an older one. This was fine with her. She had manifested a car without doing anything other than visualization.

Feeling as though it is already yours; feeling it’s real; visualizing exactly the outcome that you desire are the keys to success in planting the seeds so that you may reap the harvest of your desire.
